Though HCl is a strong acid it becomes diluted in our stomach because we contain alot of water in our body/stomach and also mucus is secreted by the gastric glands which prevents HCl to corrode.as a result the walls of the stomach won't be hurted/digested by HCl.
Hope this helps.pls mark as brainliest....
